Dear oh dear, the scam merchants really are scraping the bottom of barrel these days.

I received this email today, purportedly from the executors of the late Steve "Job" (sic).

Aside form the obvious point that the late CEO of Apple was in fact called "Jobs" not "Job", why on earth does the scammer think that I would be stupid enough to believe that Jobs (who would have never heard of me) leave me any money?

Oh, and by the way, what is "Fourthy"?

Cretin!
